Life is SWEETER.....

(inside): ....when shared with friends

Trust me...this card was so easy to make!  I used a new July Release set called Black Eyed Susan from Doodle Pantry.  I used the beautiful pre-colored flower images, took them into my Silhouette Cameo program and used the Print & Cut feature.  Everything else were punches and dies.  I already had a stash of clouds, fences and flower pots punched and cut out since I used them so much. The grass and watering can are dies.  (PS I was inspired and cased the talented Kitty Kraft).

Join the Doodle Pantry July Challenge.  You will received a free selected set (Holiday Greetings) for participating, and a chance to win a gift certificate to the store.  Hooray!

A2, copics, grey pearl, pop-ups, distressing, deckle scissors for bottom grass, butterfly punch

(inside) mini fanciful flourish, circle punches, butterfly punch, old acrylic sentiment

Dust off the watering cans...

.....Spring is here!  Well, at least in South Carolina...yippee!

I used another sweeeeet Dearie Dolls images.  As I sit in my sunroom, I see the birds very busy taking baths in the birdbaths and making nests in some of our birdhouses we have scattered in our little backyard garden.

I got carried away and bought all sorts of charms on Ebay to use on my cards.  I thought this little watering can charm was the finishing touch it needed.

Cutie Patootie Blog Hop

        This is the first blog hop I have ever participated in....so hold on to see some cutsey projects and places to go.  The theme is "cutsey"....the cuter, the better!!  There's lots of blog candy to grab along the way as well as prizes.  One request for the big prizes is that you leave a comment on every blog listed below....we will be checking.  I don't have any candy to give away, but I can offer the water can svg I used to make my shaped card. If I get 30 or more comments, I will randomly choose a winner and send you any two svgs from my blog of your choosing. If you have been following the blog hop, then you should have just come from ANGIE. To start the hop, you should go HERE.  I'm the last blog on the hop.....and this little bunny is tired!

        I made the water can svg and I made a black shadow of the can in SCAL. The bunny was a freebie from Treasure Box Designs.  I love their svgs....great price and clean cuts. The daffodils are from my yard.....haha   If you look closely (by clicking on picture) I applied Liquid Pearls for the silver rivets. Other embellishments: MS and Punch a Punch fern and leaf punches, copic markers, Peachy Keen stamps, DCWV Citrus Pad, and embossing folders.
